Pints & Popcorn: The Return

Pints & Popcorn is back!  After a long hiatus, Shea & Dave are ready to dive back into some movie chat alongside a tasty beverage & some popcorn. Before we start diving back into some of the usual individual movie pods, we thought we'd have a general chat about a bunch of movie stuff. - Going back to the movies post pandemic, what we love/what we don't. - The Barbenheimer phenomenon! - Solidarity with the strike actions of the WGA & SAG-AFTRA, middle finger to the evil studios.  - Five of our favourite movies we discovered in the last two years.  As per usual, we talk for far too long and have many drinks, but it's a worthwhile journey if you have the time. NEXT WEEK: The Nice Guys (2016) * Notes: David referred to the AMTPA a couple times - he was referring to the AMPTP * Link to Taylor Sheridan interview on The Q&A w/ Jeff Goldsmith: https://open.spotify.com/episode/37Em0c3cHqPN3bvuXpugOG?si=d9aeed26f65e4d60 Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook!
